Product description
The 40′ High Cube shipping container is a versatile and robust modular unit, ideal for a wide range of uses requiring secure, enclosed space. Whether used for on-site material storage, as a portable workshop, or for creating modular structures, this container provides a dependable solution.
This particular unit is a used container, selected for its “good condition” status, meaning it has passed a visual and structural inspection. While it may show cosmetic signs of previous service, such as minor dents or surface scratches, its core structural components—including the corner castings, top and bottom rails, and side panels—are intact and sound. The primary functionality of providing a water and airtight environment is fully intact, centered around the integrity of the door seals and the steel shell.
The container is constructed from Corten steel, which forms a protective patina on its surface over time to prevent deep corrosion. The standard wooden floor remains functional and ready for use. Please note that this listing is for the container unit only; delivery, modifications, and foundations are managed separately to ensure safe and proper installation.
